Touch‐A‐Truck is an educational community event that provides
children a hands‐on opportunity to see and touch heavy machinery
and meet the people who operate it. Funds raised from this event
support community programs, including Read & Feed, Kids in the
Kitchen, Done in a Day, and other programs and events serving the
greater Sacramento community.

The annual Elk Grove Giant Pumpkin Festival welcomes guests of
all ages to Elk Grove Regional Park over the first weekend in
October. What began in 1994 as a small harvest celebration is now
Elk Grove’s largest family festival and attracts an estimated
45,000 guests each year!

Some of California’s heftiest pumpkins will weigh off at the
festival. The festival has something for everyone with many
attractions, including the Elk Grove World Pumpkin Pie Eating
Championship, pumpkin derby, pumpkin recipe contest,
scarecrow-making contest, kids’ zone, live entertainment, an art
walk, crafts, pumpkin food, and a race across the lake between
giant pumpkin boats!

Hosted by the Cosumnes Community Services District (CSD) Parks
and Recreation Department in partnership with many sponsors.
